Ballad Of Robin Winter-Smith

Ballad Of Robin Winter-Smith - Nanci Griffith

Lyrics by：Richard Dobson

Composed by：Richard Dobson

Produced by：Jack Grochmal/Nanci Griffith/Wayne R. Miller/Jim Rooney

Mamma's in the kitchen rattlin' pans

And the baby cries

On the TV news somebody died

He was a crazy biker in a motorcycle

Ridin' daredevil show

In Merry England oh twenty seven years old

He was tryin' to break the record

For jumpin' over cars he was the champ

He fell a little bit short oh hit the ramp

This is the story sad and it's gory

Of Robin Winter-Smith

He was a very brave man if you get my drift

'Cause he waved to the crowd

Headed down the runway like a

Man possessed Robin Winter-Smith

I guess he did his best

I make a livin' a-playin' these songs

And I hang out in bars

I play my guitar oh but honey

I don't jump over cars

Mamma's in the kitchen rattlin'

Pans and the baby cries

On the TV news somebody died

He was a crazy biker in a motorcycle

Ridin' daredevil show

In Merry England oh

Twenty seven years old
